A beautiful bench was dedicated and two trees were planted in Lincoln Park in honor of Chuck Flamini. Lanphier High School teacher, Scott Metzke, collected donations from current and former LHS staff to purchase the bench and trees. Yesterday ,friends and family gathered for the dedication at Lincoln Park. Chuck left his mark on our community as a friend, teacher, union activist, school administrator and school board member. You can visit the Flamini bench in Lincoln park right beside the playground area. "I picked this spot because it faces towards Lanphier High School" said Scott Metzke.

Emma is putting her best foot forward and summer school is helping her achieve her goal!
“I just got into high school in 2020 and I wasn't matured yet. And with covid, my classes were all online that year. I neglected school and when we came back the next year in-person, I was behind. Now, with summer school, I am catching back up slowly but surely,” she said.
We offer summer school programs to help our students stay on the path to achieve success.
